Since then Microsoft published its zero cost windows installer cleanup utility, it has been proposed many times to help in resolving Microsoft installation concerns. Everything comes with its own benefits and problems. Perhaps the biggest issue is that this

Microsoft stated that windows installer cleanup only lets an individual to remove the set up files which might be somehow left behind in the un-installation process. These particular files are hard to take out by the un-installation tool alone. However you should be aware of the fact that windows installer cleanup will never do the un-installing process. You still have to use Microsoft's utility called the "Add/Remove Program" in the control panel option, or you may prefer to have a different un-installation application you find fit to uninstall the installed program itself.
You find even find that the existing Microsoft Office suite versions 2003, 2007, and 2010 cannot be uninstalled entirely by simply using the Add/Remove Program tool in windows XP variation or Programs and Features tool in Windows Vista. You might need the windows installer cleanup based on your requirement. The way to hard un-install may be one of the following:
· The set up task was not able to complete its process on it's own, leaving the new software only partially installed. And then re-installing the same software again may lead you in one more setup failure. Microsoft windows installer cleanup guarantees to fix this.
· You have properly installed the software, but you now can't take it off by reason of some corrupted set up file. The provided windows installer cleanup can deal with this.
· You weren't capable to set up the Office suite 2010 before.
